In the Greek town of Patras Anastasios Nikoladakis founded a recycling company. He noticed that a lot of the items brought in could easily be repaired.

Initiator Chris Moller had also organised a Repair Caf\u00e9 meeting in the English Cottenham two years earlier: \u201cGhanaian engineering students are very smart and resourceful, but have little experience making repairs. If successful, we will hold more meetings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Faik \u00d6zen, volunteer at a Repair Caf\u00e9 in Amsterdam, went to Turkey\u00a0 in September for a wedding. Before he went, he emailed the Turkish Foundation for Green Initiatives to ask what they thought of the Repair Caf\u00e9 concept. They gave a positive response. Faik went to meet them and not much later a date was set. On 25 October the first Rapair Caf\u00e9 meeting will be held in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yesilist.com\/atma-donustur-tamir-et-tekrar-kullan-repair-cafe-yolda\/\">Istanbul<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Serbian starter kit<br \/>\n<\/strong>Want to organise a Repair Cafe?
